Day number six. Made it and feel GREAT! My jogging was faster today! Maybe my fastest mile ever. heh. Funny that less than a week can improve things a decent amount. I also did stairmaster and cycling today. Read some Sierra magazine 'bout the environment.
The past two days I have awoke before my alarm. That's always an improvement to the day's start for me....not hearing the beeping. And then at the gym I had to plug into the sound system, rather than my ipod, for some beatles and some "groove is in the heart." heh.
So, last night I started reading "Awakening: A Sufi Experience." I only made it through chapter one. Interesting stuff. Maybe my spiritual goal is this reference to a "refined spirit of lovliness." Doesn't that sound nice? One of the things I read that was most easy to understand (and agree with ) is this thought, "Eventually, as we view our problems through the eyes of the Universe, or God, we come to realize that what we think is our problem alone is the suffereing of existence that is shared by everyone." We'll see how much more I talk about this 'stuff' here 'cause spirituality is personal...but I also like to think in words.
So, yeah....good morning. Welcome to Thursday.
